Answer:

The International Date Line, established in 1884, passes through the mid-Pacific Ocean and roughly follows a 180 degrees longitude north-south line on the Earth. It is located halfway round the world from the prime meridian—the zero degrees longitude established in Greenwich, England, in 1852.

Answer:

International Date Line is an imaginary line that runs across the surface of the earth at 1800 longitude. Since this longitude is diametrically opposite to that of the Greenwich Meridian, it results in a difference of 24 hours on crossing the line.

Explanation:

The International Date Line provides a standard means of making the needed readjustment: travelers moving eastward across the line set their calendars back one day, and those traveling westward set theirs a day ahead.

Hope this helps!
